We have all been there. We arrive home, only to find that our keys are nowhere in sight. Try to remain calm, and turn to the 3 tips below to get back in your home safe and sound.

Check All Of Your Doors And Windows

As careful as you and your family may be when it comes to securing your home, you may not be quite as careful as you imagine. Before you get too stressed out, take a walk around your home to see if you can easily open or get into any of your first floor windows or doors. Keep safety top of mind, and do not attempt to crawl through a window that is not safe, sound, or on ground level.

Take A Few Minutes

Before you really begin stressing out, take a few minute to think about who you can call. You might have a spare set of keys with a neighbor, friend, or family member. Also consider any contractors you might be able to reach out to, such as your cleaning service, babysitter, or pet sitter. Also check with other family members to see if they might have placed a hide-a-key somewhere that you are unaware of.
